Automatic Wool Farm with Observers

All the Colors, All the Time

Wool is perfect for decoration and redstone contraptions. An auto-shearing farm uses observers to detect grass growth eaten by sheep and triggers dispensers with shears to collect wool passively while you build.

How It Works

When grass regrows on a dirt block and a sheep eats it, an observer detects the change and fires a dispenser with shears. Hoppers collect the wool and send it to storage, and dyed sheep produce the colors you want forever.

What You Need

- Sheep pens with grass blocks
- Observers and dispensers with shears
- Hoppers and chests
- Dye for your favorite colors

Build Steps

Step 1: Create small pens with one sheep each to separate colors.

Step 2: Place observers facing the grass block and connect to dispensers.

Step 3: Feed outputs into storage and keep shears stocked.

Tips

- Use glass so you can see the sheep working.
- Keep a backup chest of shears to refill quickly.
- Surround with flowers and paths for a cozy farm zone.

Final Thoughts

With this farm, banners, carpets, and redstone covers are always available. Your builds will pop with color without any grind.
